Lambda the Ultimate

My name is Jaroslav Tulach and I am the founder and initial architect of NetBeans, which is not just a well known IDE, but also the first modular desktop application framework written in Java. My name sounds Slavic and has a strange pronunciation (read the initial J as Y and last ch as Spanish J), because I am Czech. However, as NetBeans has been the flagship software product of Sun Microsystems for a while now, you don't have to worry that content of the TheAPIBook might not be widely applicable and understandable.
